Jet-Mixing Reactor for ZIF Nanomaterial Synthesis Using Stoichiometric Amounts of Reactants
TS-031211 — A method for the continuous and high yield synthesis of ZIF nanomaterials (<100 nm) using stoichiometric amounts of reactants with a jet-mix reactor.
A zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) is a type of metal-organic framework (MOF) that can be used as a catalyst in membranes and for gas adsorption applications. These porous structures can be exposed to high temperatures and can remain stable after boiling in water or solvents, which makes them …

Paired Lewis Acid Site Zeolite Catalysts for the Selective Conversion of Glucose to Fructose
TS-030928 — A zeolite catalyst with a unique chemical structure that utilizes paired Lewis acid sites to increase the catalytic selectivity for the isomerization of glucose and other sugars into fructose.
Fructose is a key compound in the food and fermentation industries that is typically produced via the enzymatic isomerization of glucose. The enzymes used to efficiently convert glucose to fructose are expensive to manufacture and sensitive to processing conditions. An alternative approach is to d…
